Erik was born into an Army family as the son of Major General (Ret) Anders and Sandra Aadland.  Moving over 21 times, Erik graduated from High School in Heidelberg, Germany, then went on to attend the United States Military Academy at West Point, NY.  Graduating in 2002 not long after 9/11, Erik was commissioned an Army officer and went on to serve with combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, during which he received two Bronze Stars (one for valor).

Aadland left the Army as a Captain in 2011 to pursue a career in the Oil and Natural Gas industry, which culminated as a Project Manager managing the onshore construction of the Leviathan Project in Dor, Israel.  After leaving his company in 2020, Erik finished his Master’s degree from Pacifica Graduate Institute in Depth Psychology and chose to dedicate himself to the political arena.

With the country’s future imperiled by a corrupt establishment, Aadland once again feels called to honor his oath to defend the Constitution by running for U.S. Senate, committed to putting Colorado first.

Erik’s proudest accomplishment is his marriage of 15 years out of which he has three children (including a newborn).  He currently resides in the lovely front range of the Colorado Rocky Mountains and never intends to move again.

Stephanie McAuliffe, founder of The Way of the Diamond Warrior, Author, Master Healer and Coach, and 27 years ex-Wall Street.

Stephanie B. McAuliffe is the Founder of The Way of The Diamond Warrior - created to empower women to walk in the legitimacy of who they are. She has helped hundreds of women unravel their patterns and reclaim their sense of self. She speaks extensively about healing our stories and stepping into our true selves.  Stephanie is the Author of her latest international best-seller “THE IMPACT OF SILENCE: Self-Mastery Practices for Women: Stepping into Your Power and Embodying the Happiness That's Your Birthright”. (Launched 3/23.)

Her world felt like it fell apart when within one year, her 10-year marriage and 27-year career on Wall Street both ended. She had what she calls a mini nervous breakdown and then made the choice to say “yes” to herself. She was determined to heal her traumas, the stories she’d carried, and to step into the truth of who she truly is. She now works with women to heal all aspects of their stories and to step into the legitimacy of who they are.

She also shared...

In addition to 27 years on Wall Street:

• Founded and operated a gourmet preserves business ahead of its time
• An international best-selling author
• Worked and trained with healers and coaches worldwide
• Is a Holy Fire III Karuna Reiki Master
• Certified Oracle Guide, an intuitive healer, and studied mediumship with world-renowned mediums
• Led all sessions for a 3-day Serenity Retreat in January 2020 for 65 women
• Appeared in the March 2020 movie “Speakers Who Dare” as the sole healer who dares.
• In her free time, she’s an avid cyclist, nature enthusiast, and a lover of art and live music. She fully uses all of her senses to enjoy this wondrous life she has been given.

The Way of the Diamond Warrior was created as a revolution to a new state of being in this world. You have facets that want to be seen, most importantly by you. You’re not here to be controlled or manipulated or silenced. The silencing isn’t just of your voice, it’s of your soul. There are millions of things that needed to happen for your existence here on this planet. The fact that you’re here speaks to your legitimacy. It goes far beyond worthiness.

“When you let go of the reins to the world around you, and focus on the truth of who you really are, your essence emanates from you. There’s nothing you need to prove anymore. As you shift, the world around you naturally shifts, and the only change may be within you. This is true, incredible freedom.

I believe there is no story that can’t be given a voice. I teach you alternative ways of doing and being. I see you transformed before my very eyes and always see the light and perfection of who you are. Some of my clients thought they’d always have to live with their pains. Through our work together, they’ve been able to forever free themselves.”

The listeners are welcome to take a free assessment that will help them identify where they may be leaking their power and energy.

ERICA M. ELLIOTT, M.D.

Erica was born into a large family with a Swiss mother and an American father. Throughout her childhood, Erica moved with her family from one part of the world to another due to her father’s work. She began her schooling in England, graduated from high school in Germany, and then studied art in Florence, Italy, before returning to the States to attend college.

The seeds for becoming a medical doctor were first sown when she spent a summer in Switzerland learning from her uncle, an eccentric and brilliant medical doctor. It took many years before those seeds sprouted.

Erica came to medicine later than most medical students, after pursuing other careers and interests, including teaching grade school and herding sheep on the Navajo Reservation, mountain climbing in the Andes while serving in the Peace Corps in South America, teaching Outward Bound students wilderness survival in the Rocky Mountains, studying spiritual practices, and traveling abroad.

After graduating from the University of Colorado Medical School and completing her residency in family practice in Denver, Erica worked in Cuba, New Mexico, where she fulfilled her National Health Service obligation. From there she worked in a number of settings including a clinic for indigent care, a local emergency room, a women’s clinic, a multispecialty clinic, and finally, in 1993, Dr. Elliott opened her own private practice in her co-housing community, The Commons, which she helped found in the early 1990s.

Dr. Elliott’s unrelenting curiosity has led her on many eye-opening and heart-opening adventures. The years she spent living in foreign cultures, both as a child and an adult, enabled her to bring a fresh perspective to her life’s work.

Dr. Elliott specializes in family practice and environmental medicine. Her private medical practice grew rapidly and soon she was treating patients who came to her from other parts of the country, as well as local patients. She has been nicknamed the “Health Detective.” She finds deep meaning and purpose through helping her patients find relief from their suffering.

Over the years, Erica has given radio talks, interviews, webinars, workshops at Esalen and Omega Institutes, and a TEDx talk about living in co-housing. She is the co-author of Prescriptions for a Healthy House, and the author of Medicine and Miracles in the High Desert: My Life among the Navajo People.
